Abstract: The crisis caused by COVID-19 has forced educational institutions to use electronics for educational purposes and thus to digitize the entire process of lectures as well as exams and other school activities. Distance learning is, of course, welcome at a time when it is necessary to limit oneself socially as much as possible to help curb the spread of infections. But everything has both good and bad sides and e-learning is no exception. Rapid changes in this area required even faster adaptation by teachers, professors, or lecturers, as well as pupils and students. The latter, already born in the age of electronics and accustomed to drastic innovations in this field, probably had fewer problems with this. The purpose of the research is to identify the advantages and disadvantages of e-learning observed by users. The research will be limited to three of the most widespread e-meeting programs. These are Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Zoom. Assuming that these are the three most used programs, the satisfaction of the users of these programs is also an important issue in the research.
